I put my little girl to bed with teardrops in her eyesAll day I've tried to comfort her and louder were her criesI left her there to say her prayers and stepped outside the doorThe prayer I heard was one I knew I'd never heard beforePlease have my mommy ask my daddy to come homeSometimes I try and get my way and mommy's so aloneShe told me once that when I'm right I never should give inSo if at first I don't succeed I'll cry cry again

I know our little girl is right and we're both in the wrongAnd so I've called you up tonight to ask you please come homeI can't go on or stand for long the way she cries todayAnd I can't go to sleep tonight because I heard her prayPlease have my mommy...
